Chesterton ....

Featured Replies

this guy Chesterton went to Oxford, a renown university in England... He was taking a final exam for phycology. All he had to do was write an essay answering a simple question in 3 hours.

 

The question was: What is courage?

 

Everyone in the class took the whole three hours and wrote a bunch of words that never really answered the question.

 

But Chesterton came up with a genius answer. the proffessor gave him the highest score and Chesterton graduated at the top of his class. His answer to the question what is courage was..............................

Don't know about that one, but according to my old english teacher in high school, her brother once took an essay test where the teacher asked "why?" (a philosophy class). He turned it in with the answer "why not?" and received a 100.

All these "I know a guy who knows a guy" stories are BS.

Of course.

 

But still cool.

I heard the same thing with the "why not?" except it was some dude at Harvard taking his final lol whatever, still a good concept.
